Google is turning AI Mode into a real helper you can use every day. Restaurant reservations in Google AI Mode are rolling out in the US for everyone, not just Labs testers. Google is also adding support to find event tickets plus beauty and wellness appointments, and it is expanding Flight Deals to more than 200 countries. There is a new Canvas flow for trip building too, so planning does not feel like a chore.
Here’s how Google AI Mode Works
Here is how the new booking flow works. Tell AI Mode what you want, with your preferences, and it searches across multiple partners to show real-time availability. For restaurants, it can complete the reservation for you after you pick a time. Partners include OpenTable, Resy, and Tock for dining, and Ticketmaster, StubHub, SeatGeek, and Vivid Seats for events. For local appointments, it works with Booksy, Fresha, and Vagaro. You get a clean, curated list, then a quick confirm. It is fast, really fast.
Tickets and local appointments get smarter results today, and Google says agentic booking for those is available in the US through the Google AI Mode experiment in Labs. That means AI can help finish the checkout steps for you when you are opted into Labs. For restaurants, the agentic flow is now rolling out broadly in the US, so many people will see the full end-to-end booking without flipping any extra switches.
Flight Deals is going global. The tool launched in August for the US, Canada, and India. Starting today, Google AI Mode Flight Deals is available in more than 200 countries. You describe your trip in everyday language, like “week in Lisbon in April, under $700, nonstop if possible,” and it hunts for the best matches. If you are flexible on dates, you will probably save money because it checks a bunch of combinations that would take you ages to try by hand. You can tweak the request and keep narrowing until it feels right.
Canvas inside AI Mode also gets a big upgrade for trip planning. Say what kind of trip you want and the recs you care about, then pick Create Canvas. You will see live flight and hotel data, photos and reviews from Google Maps, and helpful info pulled from across the web.
It suggests options that match your criteria, with hotel comparisons by price and amenities, plus food and activity ideas planned around how long it actually takes to get around from where you are staying. You can ask follow-up questions, talk through tradeoffs, and jump back in through AI Mode history on desktop. You can use Canvas for travel planning on desktop in the US if you’re part of the AI Mode Labs preview.
A couple of simple pointers can make the results even better. Be specific with constraints, like “outdoor seating,” “two seats together in the lower bowl,” or “30-minute massage near SoHo after 5 pm.” If you want even better results, add a vibe or must-haves, such as “quiet” or “kid friendly.” For trips, start broad, then tell Canvas what to cut. Honestly, this is the kind of AI help that saves you from juggling 15 open tabs.
Google says hotel and flight bookings are on the roadmap for AI Mode, so the same agentic flow that books dinner should eventually handle your whole trip. For now, the combo of Google AI mode restaurant reservations, google ai mode flight deals, and the new ai mode canvas travel planning already covers a lot of everyday planning.
